Inter-Island Trade: A Pillar of the Indian Ocean Economy

Trade between Madagascar, Reunion Island, Mauritius, and Mayotte is a crucial component of the Indian Ocean’s economy.

Despite their cultural and economic differences, these islands are interdependent and complementary, forming a dynamic trade network in the region.

Madagascar

The port of Toamasina is Madagascar’s main port, handling approximately 80% of the country’s freight traffic. For air transport, Ivato International Airport, located in Antananarivo, manages the majority of air traffic. It is important to note that agricultural and mining products are strictly regulated, making it essential to entrust your shipments to an expert who understands and complies with Madagascar’s specific customs regulations.

Reunion Island

Reunion Island, as a French overseas department, acts as a bridge between the European Union and other Indian Ocean islands.

The Port of La Pointe des Galets is the main port of Reunion Island, while Roland Garros Airport handles the majority of air traffic. As a French department, Reunion Island adheres to EU customs regulations, which can facilitate trade for European importers and exporters.

Mauritius

Mauritius, with its diversified economy spanning textiles to the information and technology industries, is a key trade partner for neighboring islands.

The port of port Louis is the main port of Mauritius, and Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam international airport serves as the primary air hub. Mauritius offers a business-friendly customs regime, featuring relatively low duties and efficient administration.

Mayotte

Mayotte, although the smallest of these islands, plays a strategic role in trade due to its geographical position. It serves as a transshipment point for goods in transit to other islands. The Port of Longoni is Mayotte’s main port, and Dzaoudzi-Pamandzi Airport is its primary airport. Like Réunion, Mayotte is a French department and therefore follows EU customs regulations, which can facilitate trade for European importers and exporters
